KUCHING -- Saddled with constant flight cancellations and loss of confidence in the local tourism industry, the Sarawak Tourism Federation (SFA) wants Malaysia Airlines (MAS) to resume the rural air service, taking over from Fly Asian Xpress (FAX).
SFA president Wee Hong See said Wednesday it would be submitting a memorandum pertaining to the appeal to State Urban Development and Tourism Minister Datuk Seri Wong Soon Koh Soon soon in an effort to rectify the problems faced by the industry at present.
"The budget low-cost model of FAX is simply not conducive for Sarawak tourism and with the forthcoming Visit Malaysia Year 2007, one of our greatest concerns is to regain the confidence of all tour agencies in Sarawak and overseas," he told a news conference here.
